The Devil Made Me Do It.

I hate to bombard y'all with more CB/Ri-Ri news.. I just CAN'T ESCAPE IT!!! So-- the trial went down last week, but is being post-poned until April. Rihanna does not want an order of protection against Brown.. It would be kinda hard anyone considering that they are bumping uglies on a regular basis... Again...

My good friend Mo told me that the defense team is drafting up this cockamaie proposal that stipulates if Chris touches Rihanna again, he must pay her $10 million... Word? Can every battered woman in America get such treatment? Just wondering. That deifnitley seems more than a little bias on the justive system's side. IMO, if Ri-Ri is fool enough to go back to someone who would beat you within an inch of your life-- then damn it, suffer the consequences! Why get PAID for it? SMDH. Anyways, check out what advice mama OPRAH has for the poor misguided Rihanna:

Quote of The Day

I saw this ish on Bossip... I think Bey is getting more delusional everyday. Mos Def, Nas and a whole lot of other niccas better stand up and set this ish straight! LOL...

"Well, fortunately I haven’t had any break-ups! This [her marriage to Jay Z] is my first relationship,” stated Bey when asked whose songs help her get through heartache the way her songs do for her fans.”

That quote gets an MMMMMM HMMMMMM and a SERIOUS side-eye from me. Blah.

Hip-Hop Quotable...

B-I-G...G-I-E a.k.a B-I-G...
Get it? Biggie.
Also known as the bon apetit,
rappers can't sleep need sleepin'
BIg keep creepin'
Bullets keep seekin'
Casualtis-ly treatin'
Dumb rappers need teachin'.
Lesson A: Don't FUCK wit B-I,
That's that-- oh I..
Thought he was wack,
Oh come, come now
Why y'all so dumb now?
Hunt me or be hunted
I got three hundred and fifty-seven ways
to simmer/sautee
I'm the winner ALL DAY
Lights get dimmer down Biggie's hallway
My forte causes Caucasians to say,
"He sounds demented"-- car: weed-scented,
If I said it, I meant it
Bite my tongue for no one.
Call me EVIL.
Or unbelievable.

"Unbelievable" -Notorious B.I.G

Going on today's BIGGIE theme, this is my favorite Biggie song of all time. I just wrote that off of memory-- I know the whole thing forwards and backwards. This is the type of mastery of words and wittiness that was commonplace for Big. This is what made him so great. It's not like he was saying anything that anyone else wasn't saying. The cliches, the cars, sex, money, oh yes. But it's the way he laid it down that was so unique. And inspiring. And for all you wack lil here-today-gone-tomorrow rappers? "Don't be mad, UPS is hiring!"

B.I.G Rest In Peace...

Today is the 12-year anniversary of the untimely death of a rap legend-- The Notorious B.I.G. 12 years ago today, he was snatched from us, and left a void that has never been able to be filled. We must never forget the legacy that he left behind, and the realness that he brought to the table as one of rap's greatest.



Biggie was so dope, he made me wanna be from Brooklyn-- and that's serious... I'm so Harlem it's not even funny! Haha. But now that I actually live in BK-- I can look around and still see his influences everywhere. There are 12-year-olds in the hood today reciting Biggie's lyrics as if they were there themselves... Some of them weren't even a thought yet! But you know, that just shows how amazing this man is. Pharrell says: N.E.R.D = No one Ever Really Dies, and it's true. Biggie might be gone physically, but he will always be in our minds, our hearts and our music. BROOKLYN, I think you need to stand up right about now.

"Jus Check Da Credits, Hoe!"

So. Word on the street is that there is a feud going on between Beyonce and Keri Hilson. Apparently, Hilson is getting on Beyonce and Ciara in the hot new remix to her hit single: "Turnin' Me On". Some say it's real, some say it's fake, some say it's to sell records, because Keri's debut drops on the 24th.. Who knows? All I know is it makes for interesting news, so here I am. This whole ordeal started when Beyonce rejected some new tracks of Hilson's. I have no idea where ths Ciara beef comes from...


I'll let y'all be the judge though. Here is the infamous line(s):

“I ain’t tryin’ to start no mess there’s just something on my chest that I need to get off…Your vision cloudy if you think you the best. You can dance
, she can sing, but need to move it ‘to the left’.”

“She need to go have some babies. She need to sit down she fading.”

“Go head tell these folks how long I been writing your songs… I been putting you on… check the credits hoe!…If you want me you can find me in Decatur hoe.”

Well, it's common knowledge that Hilson has written several tracks for Beyonce and other Platinum-selling artists in the past. This can be a jab at Bey-- or a misunderstanding-- but from the tone? I thinks its the former...Wanna here the track for yourself? CLICK HERE.

I Like These Two....

Estelle's latest album, "Shine" has basically been my Bible for the past year or so. The production is immaculate, her vocals are sick, the concepts are interesting, and she's a real delight. I would love to see her in concert-- something I am definitely working on... Then there's Solange. It took a while for her to grow on me (I must admit), but I always have an affinity towards the under-dog. Being that people always wanna cast her in her sister's shadow, she has to go above and beyond the norm to stand-out. And that's just what she does. I haven't heard her whole album, but from what I have heard, she has some good material. Her content is fresh and intriguing. Her voice has improved over the years, and motherhood, the death of a dear friend, and divorce has certainly made her more pensive and alluring... She has a dark side we don't see from Bey...

The two chicas are currently on tour together-- check em out in a town near you!

Mandatory Chrianna Update.

I apologize in advance, but sometimes you gotta keep up with he Internet-Jones'. So here we go. Chris is expected to be arraigned in an LA court today with girlfriend Rihanna by his side. Chris was just formally charged with 2 felonies by The L.A. County District Attorney. One count of making a criminal threat and one count of felony assault both against Rihanna. Those charges can lend up to 9 years in prison. Chris will be arraigned at 3:30p this afternoon. Check out the latest:

CHRIS BROWN must be feeling great this week, as he waits to hear whether he is to be charged for an alleged attack on girlfriend RIHANNA. According to E! News, a blood-stained Gucci gown (identified as the one she was wearing en route to the Grammys) has been turned over to the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office as evidence. Nice. And it's also emerged that the LAPD filed an emergency protective order requested by Rihanna just hours after the attack, barring Brown from contacting her for five days. "It is standard practice for the cops to ask the domestic violence victim at the scene of the attack whether they would like an emergency protective order keeping the attacker away," Santa Monica criminal defence attorney ALEC ROSE told E! "If the victim requests it, the EPO is issued and is good for five days. After that time period the victim would have to notify the district attorney's office if they would like the order extended." Well, we already know she didn't bother with that. The couple flew back to California together on Monday after spending the weekend in Miami.

Picture Of The Day...

It's a MIRACLE! Amy Winehouse is actually wearing CLEAN ballet-slippers... Those signature slippers she always wears always look so raggedy-- like she's been kicking sewer rats and dead pigeons all day. Amy took an extended vacay in Grenada where she got treatment for her many demons and even gained a pound or two. Now she's back in London-town, and word on the street is her hubby is humping a 16-year-old. SMH. Old habits die hard-- she got rid of the dirty-ass shoes, now let's see if she'll get rid of the dirt-ass man!

Quote of The Day (SMDH Edition)

“God chose me. He made a path for me. I am God’s vessel. “But my greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live.”

I mean, do I REALLY have to say anything after that? Didn't think so.

New Weezy: "Prom Queen"

Glamour had the clever little idea of taking the biggest names in movie and media and having them represent the most powerful icons in media, entertainment and history. Above is a snapshot of Paula Patton as Billie Holiday. They definitely got it right with that one but this:



Riddle me this: in what world does Alicia Keys ever remotely resemble Michelle Obama? I dunno if I'm just bias because the skank was out creepin' with then-married man Swizz Beatz, or maybe it's just because I am so-over her self-righteous act. Can't stand self-righteousness-- we all fall short of the dream, we're all imprefect, we're all human-- sorry Alicia... I honestly would have prefered to see Taraji Henson in that role, or even Nia Long or Gabrielle Union. Alicia is so not "Michelle" to me...Then there's this:



Linds doesn't really strike me as a "Madonna" either, but I can see where they got the inspiration for it. They are both sexually-charged bad-girls that the papps are utterly obsessed with... So I see it. More pix when you holla at my boy Michael K's page: D-LISTED.
